Hi ya congrats on being 5 weeks!!! I'm sure your OH is well over the moon but maybe it's nervousness that may be taking over excitement. Give him time and soon enough he will be ringing your ears of. xxxx
Hiya Samo!!!! I'm so thrilled for you, and now very excited that I've finally discovered these pg journals!!! I'm gonna follow you every step of the way! (and hopefully join in here one of these days... )
That is soooooooo sweet about your MIL! Mine was the same - for all that I rag on about her, it was really nice to see!!!
Don't worry about DH - men react really weirdly to this kinda thing... I kept saying it was Swiss men (they are notoriously... uh... rock-like) but apparently it is world wide!!!! There's a saying that men only become fathers when the baby is born...
Sending you and well-wishes! I'm watching!

I agree with swissmiss! Guys dont usually start getting excited until you are showing! MINE WAS LIKE THAT when I was pregy with DS!!!! I wanted to buy stuff and he just wasnt excited about it at all (on the outside that is!) .....but then once I started showing (I started wearing pregy clothes as son as I found out I was pregy and DH thought I was nuts! ) anyway, once I started showing he wanted to come shopping with me and we would walk around and he was kind of walking with a kind of strutt! it was really cute I giggled to myself! It was like he was saying in his posture "yup! I did that! I made her fat!"
So dont worry guys are strange creatures!
Hey chicken, how's pregnancy suiting you? lol
I am thrilled that you have this journal now, you really deserve it after how patient you have been.
Will keeping dropping by to check on you, we are all missing you over in TTc but wouldn't ever want you back there......unless you are visiting of course, which I absolutely expect you to do lol.
Aww Wendy, Niknat, I hope to see you all here soon . I do miss the TTC forums! Of course i visit there frequently I will be your cheerleader!!!!! This preggy stuff takes forever, i thought TTC was long...at this point i'd be setting up for O already but with being PG i've got weeks to wait for an appointment, a sign, showing, etc! Patience seems to be key here. I am just relaxing and enjoying every step of the way!
Akamummy, i think my DH will be the same...he will (hopefully) light up when i start showing. I am wearing alot of babydoll tops lately which make me look pregnant and i don't care if my tummy hangs out after i eat LOL!!!! Ahhh the one time in my life i don't mind looking 'fat'!
Oh girls, we went out for lunch today and DH ordered a burger and when the waiter asked how he wanted it to be cooked DH said "well-done". I asked him why not medium, as that is what he usually gets, he said just incase i wanted a bite of his burger, i can have one . He knows i am not supposed to eat red meats . I thought that was sweet of him!!!
Your uterus will be below your pelvic bone still at the mo. Lots of us have had bloating early on some to the point of wearing maternity clothes at 6 weeks!!! They say it starts to come above it at about 12 weeks and thats exactly when mine popped over!!
How slow does it all go......esp the first 12 weeks - you just wish it would hurry the .... up!!!
Wont be long till you are having scans and all sorts - will you be finding out the sex???
ooo below the pelvic bone, will have to feel around there haha. I am bloating like CRRRAAZZZYYY just starting the past 2 days. hmph! i feel huge! and constipated no less! (tmi!) ugghhhhhh
as for finding out the sex...i am pretty sure we will be! it's hard NOT to find out...with us not living by ANY family (they live in different timezones and different countries) it would be hard to keep such a secret as they would be eager for news from us. I would like to decorate and buy things according to gender, not sure if i want to go for gender neutral colors...greens and yellows just aren't fav colors of mine lol. Although i was thinking maybe the 2nd or even 3rd baby I WILL keep as a surprise...just don't think i can keep #1 a surprise it will be first grandchild for both our families, i am sure they are all already eagerly wanting to know if bean is a boy or girl!
